Tree Of Life

Post by Dorthonion »

I'm actually amazed that information about this film has not been posted into this forum yet ... Terry Malick's "Tree Of Life" may be a controversial film, but it is one of the most powerful myth inspired movies I have watched in my lifetime.

Trailer

Very strong imagery, and not for kids. The narrative is not chronological, but works by association. Roger Ebert's review caught it best what this film is about. Highly recommended.

Dorthonion,
The tree of life is a very old and widespread theme, isn't-it?
